Common unveils his new Let Love album in Toronto August 7th
Common is releasing his new album, Let Love, on August 30 via Loma Vista Recordings.
About the album, he shared, “This album is inspired by the book, Let Love Have The Last Word, which gave me a path to write about things I had never written about before. It forced me to go deeper and because I opened up about so many things in the book, I was charged to go to raw, personal and spiritual places in the music. Production-wise, I knew that the music had to have depth, soul and dimension to it. I wanted the musicianship and the spirit of what live music brings but it also had to have something raw and basement about it. When my team said, ‘You should do some music revolving around the book’, I just took that energy and went running into my artistry without focusing on anything else. No movies, no commercials, no parties (well, I don’t do that too much anyway) and I just worked on music. So this album is the culmination of this journey, this passion and this Divine Love that I have for one of GOD's greatest gifts - MUSIC.”
Common will kick off his Let Love Tour in Denver, Colorado and continues through marquee venues in the US and Canada, with a stop in Toronto for a show at the Queen Elizabeth Theatre on August 7th. Get tickets here.
The official digital and CD release date is August 30th, with vinyl to follow on October 11th.
